New look coming for Countdown to Kickoff…

by
Countdown to Kickoff of Navarre Raider Football is ready to resume on 18 Apr 2026 with Day 125. I am working with ChatGPT to come up with some new images. The photos of the players will not reflect on my Facebook Group Page any longer; but you will still be able to view them on my website (IrishBillSports.com).
 
If you have any photos of players that have played in the past and would like to share them; you can send them to me in Messenger or email them to me at IrishBillSports@gmail.com.
 
The new voyage will begin on 18 April with the first image; but today I will share a new Navarre Raider Wallpaper that you can use on your desktop.
